Help, problem with merging expressions website with dreamweaver

hello,
I am hoping you guys have some patience with this question. We created a website with frontpage and it's hosted on an ftp server and we use ftp open and edit the site. My question is, how can I open, work, and edit my site, since it is not even saved on my local hard drive but on the ftp servers of the webhosts.
Thanks,
Andrew

I can think of two ways and I am sure there must be many other ways to do what you want to do.
1) You could download the entire site using FTP program like WS-FTP, FileZilla and others.  You can point this downloaded folder into your DW when you are defining a new site;
2) The second method is to define a new site in DW and then import a site using DW's own FTP technology;  this will allow you to download your entire site from your host.
There are also other tools like WinHTTrack etc that can download the entire site on to your desktop.
The aim is to download everything on to your desktop before doing any editing.
Hope this gives you a start.

  • No Internet with Airport Express - Internet with ethernet

    I have achieved frustration.
    I have searched and searched the forums for the answer to this, and all I find is "reset the modem"
    iMac
    OSX 10.6.1
    Airport Extreme
    Airport Utility on iMac
    Arescom Netdsl 800 modem
    Qwest ISP
    I can connect to the Airport Express, seamlessly with the Airport Utility.
    However, I do not have Internet.
    If I take the ethernet cable out of the Airport Express and plug it directly into the iMac, I have lightning fast Internet.
    Can anyone help me out? Can anyone point me in a direction?
    Thanks,

    I don't see anything unusual with the modem information that would prevent a normal installation.
    Try a factory reset on the AirPort Extreme (AEBS) as follows:
    Pull the power for a few minutes
    Hold in the reset button and keep holding it in as you plug the AEBS back in to power
    Release the reset button after approximately 8-10 seconds
    Connect the ethernet cable from the modem to the WAN (circle icon) port on the AEBS and use AirPort Utility to reconfigure the device. The main settings that you will choose are Connect Using "Ethernet" and Connection Sharing would be "Share a public IP address"
    It's possible that you may get a Double NAT error notice. You can click to ignore this warning.
    See if that might help.

  • Having problems creating PDF from website with query-string URLs

    I have a website that I would like to create a PDF from. I am using the Create -> PDF from Web Page..., selecting the site's home page, and capturing 2 levels, with "stay on same path" and "stay on same server" checked in order to limit the scope of the crawl.
    Where the pages are at example.com/foo/ and example.com/foo/bar/, this works fine. However, where the pages are at example.com/foo/ and example.com/foo/?p=1, the page represented by the query string URL is not converted to the PDF.
    This is a problem, given that the site I want to archive as a PDF uses query strings for most of its pages.
    I have been able to individually convert a single query-string-based page into a PDF using this method, but doing this for every page on the site would be almost impossible given the sheer number of pages on the site.
    Is this a known issue? Is there a workaround other than separately capturing each page (which would be prohibitive effort)?
    I have tried this in both Acrobat Pro X and Acrobat Pro 9 for Mac, with the same results.

    Remember, Acrobat is a 32-bit application and as such cannot access all that 'extra' stuff.
    Be well...

  • I hear that apps are the way to go in the future for launching web sites. Where do I go to find a good app writer? and How difficult is it to merge a website with an app application. My website will be written in microsoft.

    I hear that having an app for my future website is the way to go in the future. It will help to even the playing field for small business such as mine.THere will great ways to feel out the personal preferences of prospective clients. My site will be written in microsoft. It will have a blogg, store, database, and a community forum. What are the pros and cons to having an app. What are the possible expences to expect with building,launching, hosting and maintaining an app compared to advertising on a deskop. I hear PCC and SEO can often add up to over $5000 a month. Hosting will cost at least a couple thousand a year.
    ANy advice will be greatly appreciated.

    Sounds like you really do not understand what you are talking about.  Not trying to be judgemental, but nothing is written in "Microsoft" unless it's a Microsoft Operating System, application, or website.
    Microsoft is a company, not a programming language.
    I would also recommend you do some reasearch on HTML5 so that there is no need to create an app for each platform, but rather have a single site that will run on multiple platforms.
    Maybe look into contracting/hiring a good web designer.

  • Problems with merging/hiding tabs with multigroup in PC-UI view

    Hi,
    I am customizing the Products PCUI Application using a ztest view. When i copy selected events within a tab page group to another view ztest, i am not able to see the selected tab for the customized view. One of the events within the tab page group that i am copying to has a Multi Group.
    Here's the scenario under the Distribution Chains Tab in Products
    The Tab page group has the following events
    View  Sequence   Event                            Description        Multigroup
              1              PRD_SALES                 Sales Data
              2               PRD_STEXT                   Sales Texts
              7               CST_100000000000001  Sales and Distribution  CST_100000000000001_MULT
    Per my requirement, I need to hide only the Sales Text tab in the customized view ZTEST. To satify the requirement, I copied only the events PRD_SALES and CST_100000000000001 into ZTEST view. After the modifications, i see only the Sales Data tab in ZTEST though i have copied the other event CST_100000000000001 also in ZTEST.
    I also tried removing the multi group CST_100000000000001_MULT which was under the event CST_100000000000001 while copying. In this case, i am able to see the tab Sales and Distribution , but when i click on that tab nothing happens.
    We are having similar issues with applications that are involved with multi group.
    How do i resolve such issues involving multi groups? When i checked the multigroup CST_100000000000001_MULT , it had the "Event No Reuse" box checked meaning Event Not Reusable in Other Multigroups. Could it be the reason?
    Any insight or alternative for this issue is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Ok, let's double-check your AX's settings ...
    Perform a "factory default" reset of the AX
    o (ref: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=108044)
    To set up AirTunes on the AirPort Express Base Station (AX), temporarily connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, use the AirPort Admin Utility to check these settings:
    AirPort tab
    o Base Station Name: <whatever you wish or use the default>
    o Wireless Mode: Join an Existing Wireless Network (Wireless Client)

  • Help with merged cells in table

    I'm just learning how to use Dreamweaver 8 and tables. I am
    trying to use a table with merged cells filled with graphics --
    only one graphic per cell. I make my jpg the size of my cell, which
    it seems to fill. Then, when I upload it to view in browser, it
    looks as though the graphic doesn't take up the entire cell. At one
    point, it was working both in Dreamweaver and the browser. Now, in
    the browser view, it looks as though there is extra space above the
    graphic and below it. Any suggestions on what is going on???

    It's not the use of tables with your graphics that is
    necessarily the
    problem, it's HOW you are using the tables with your
    graphics. Can we see
    the page you have built so we can examine the code?

  • Can I make a (simple and basic) website with Photoshop CS3?

    I know there are tools in the Photoshop CS3 that can help me with web design functions such as making slices, animated gif, layer etc. But can it help me to design and create a simple and basic personal website? I don't need any fancy stuff like dynamic html or xml (maybe I will put some music files) but only basic html would be enough. I have MS Frontpage 2003, which can help me to create a website with no problem at all but I like the slices and layers idea on the Photoshop. Plus sometimes a website that was created by Frontpage will not look the same or work properly in Firfox, which is the browser that I use all the time. I wish I could have Dreamweaver CS3 but it is too expensive for me. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
    p.s. If the answer is no, then I would start using Frontpage to help me with that.

    Forget FrontPage. Forget you ever even heard of it.

    I will explain my situation.....stay with me!.......
    My website is basically a dating website. So, i need a sercg
    function so members can SEARCH for people in there area...
    Heres an example. of the search I need....
    LOOKING FOR -- MALE OR FEMALE (select box for male or female)
    AREA - North West, north east, midlands, etc etc (drop down
    box)
    PROXIMITY - 5mile, 10 mile, 25 mile etc (drop down box)

    example...... Mr. Smith is looking for a women, within 5miles
    of his postcode. he clicks search....HOW DO I GET THE WEBSITE TO
    RETURN HIS REQUESTS. Do i need to buy some sort of software???
    Hope you can help!!!!
    Jemma xxxxxxxxxx

    I'm afraid that in order to get reasonable search results for
    a dating type service, you are going need to do some programming.
    This means that along with solid html and css, you need to be adept
    at server side script programming and SQL programming. Have you
    already create the database? What kind of database design
    experience do you have? Seems like you are building a rather
    complex site and without the proper skills you will be facing a
    rather steep learning curve. You may want to think about hiring an
    experienced programmer if you want to get a quality site going in a
    reasonable amount of time.
    I don't know of any off-the-shelf packages out there that may
    exist for a dating type service so you may want to search around a
    bit.

  • BIG5 Problem with WebLogic Express 6.1

              Hi,
              I found some problem with Chinese Big5 when using JSP. All big5 code convert in
              a wrong format and can't view by browser.
              My server setting is:
              OS: Solaris 8
              Weblogic: Express 6.1
              JDK 1.3.1
              Anyone know how to solve this problem?
              I have tried different way like creating a new string in different encoding type.
              Actually the BIG5 work fine with Solaris 8, JDK1.2.2_05a and Weblogic 5.1. However
              I WEblogic 6.1 only support JDK1.3 or above. Anyone can help me out. Thanks.

    The download binary is the same for WL Full version and WL Express. It's the

  • Please help! Major problems (performan​ce and lock-ups) with brand new W520 with Intel 520 SSD

    My company primarily uses HP machines but I've been a long time IBM (now Lenovo) fan so I recently had IT purchase me a new Lenovo W520 (product ID 42763LU).
    Once the machine arrived I had them do the following:
    Remove the 500GB HDD and replace it with an Intel 520 series 240GB SSD
    Remove the optical drive and install the 500GB hard drive that came with the machine in the optical bay (with the bay adapter of course)
    Format both drives and put a preconfigured windows 7 64-bit image on the SSD
    A general summary of the system is the following:
    Intel i7-2860QM CPU
    8GB RAM
    NVIDIA Quadro 1000M
    Intel 520 240GB SSD (primary HDD) [SSDSC2CW240A3]
    Hitachi 500GB HDD (optical bay) [HTS727550A9E365]
    Intel Advanced-N 6205 network adapter
    TouchChip Fingerprint Scanner
    The machine was a few days delayed getting to me due to "hard drive driver issues" (that's what I was told). When I received the machine I immediately noticed that it was much slower than I expected (I have a custom built i5 HTPC at home running windows 7 on a Crucial SATA III SSD that I was comparing it to) and I was experiencing frequent hangs (ranging from 30 seconds to multiple minutes), super long boot times, general “slowness” at times, and occasional lock-ups. Since our "baseline" laptop here at work is the "equivalent" HP workstation my IT guys have been less than helpful in helping me to solve this issue. Being reasonably computer savvy I decided to try to try to fix the issue myself. I performed the following “troubleshooting” steps:
    1. One of the first issues (errors) I noticed in the event viewer was errors related to the optical drive. Clearly the image they installed on the machine was not from a machine with the same hardware configuration. So, I decided to just wipe the machine and perform a fresh install of windows 7 from the disks (well, USB). After spending multiple days installing windows, performing updates, making sure all the drivers were current, and installing only the critical software I need, I was disappointed to realize that although I fixed the optical drive errors the machine was still slow, was hanging, and locking up regularly.
    2. Removed the cover on the machine and removed/reinstalled the drive to verify it was secure.Everything looked good.
    3. Verified the latest firmware is installed on all my Intel hardware. Everything seemed up to date.
    4. I performed a number of troubleshooting steps like booting the machine with/without the battery, with/without the HDD in the optical bay, installed/removed from the docking station, etc. and none of these things helped (also a note – occasionally when running on the battery I was hearing a strange “buzz” or “static” sound coming from the area around the SSD).
    5. Next I did some internet research and learned quite a few things. First, it sounds like others have had similar problems with this machine and/or SSD combo and there were quite a few options suggested to “fix” these issues. The general consensus for troubleshooting steps were:
    5.1. Download and install the latest Intel chipset drivers and AHCI controller drivers (overwriting whatever windows installs during updates).This didn’t fix anything.
    5.2. Turn off PCI express link state power management in the power manager. This didn’t fix anything.
    5.3. Disable superfetch, prefetch, indexing, defragmentation, page file, system restore, and hibernate. A few of these were already disabled by windows so in those cases I just verified they were disabled in the services and application editor. These things may have slightly increased performance but did not fix the major hang/lockup issues I was having.
    5.4. I followed online steps to edit the registry to disable the PCI link power management by adding ports, adding the required variables, and setting them all to 0. This did seem to have fixed the hangs and/or lock-ups but the machine is still much slower than I would expect (boot times are still pretty slow and it does “stutter” when I’m doing more than one thing at a time. Also a note here – I have the Intel SSD toolbox installed and I noticed that it was giving me a warning for DIPM not being optimized. I made the mistake of clicking “Tune!” and then started having the hang/lock-up issues again. I went back into the registry and sure enough the PCI link power management variables for ports 0 and 1 were set back to 1. I set them back to 0 and the hangs have gone away. I will not be “tuning” the DIPM through the Intel SSD toolbox again…
    6. I also fixed a couple of other minor errors I was seeing in the event viewer by disabling benign services and/or making slight timeout modifications (I researched each issue on the internet to verify they were benign before I implemented any changes). These fixes didn't seem to do anything other than make some of the errors/warnings go away. So, the list of errors/warnings has become much smaller but I’m still getting the following (maybe an issue, maybe not?):
    Event ID 37 for every processor saying that they are in a reduced performance state for xx seconds since the last report
    Event ID 10002 - WLAN Extensibility Module has stopped
    Event ID 4001 - WLAN AutoConfig service has successfully stopped
    Event ID 27 – Intel® 82579LM Gigabit Network Connection link is disconnected
    I suspect the WLAN errors have something to do with windows fighting with the Lenovo access connection tools?
    7. Since the machine still seemed slow I downloaded the program AS SSD and checked the performance of the SSD. When I compared my performance numbers to the benchmark numbers I found onlineI was very surprised to discover that I’m getting about 50% of the performance that I should (values below are read/write).
    Seq: 262.11 / 188.32 (s/b 504.58 / 298.28) [MB/s]

    Score: 207 / 208 (s/b 314 / 327)
    Overall Score: 533 (s/b 797)
    One more note - it seems like my cooling fan is running at a high speed almost all of the time. This is probably one of my power settings (I think I have it set for max performance) but it's even doing this when there is no load (i.e. I'm using IE and just vieweing webpages - like right now).
    So, I apologize for such a long post but I’ve spent countless hours researching and troubleshooting this problem and haven’t been able to figure out what the heck is wrong here. Am I missing something simple or do you guys think I have a SSD and/or problem with the machine itself? To say that any and all help would be greatly appreciated would be a massive understatement – I’m on the verge of pulling my hair out and I really need this machine working as quickly as possible!
    Please let me know if you have any suggestions and/or need additional information. Thanks in advance for your help!
    -Erik

    Lol gotcha about the drive as an option. I didn't go SSD with mine. Do you have the latest firmware on your drive? It is supposed to be v1.97. Just checking (ah and I see item 3 so guess so). Do you have the SSD drive toolbox software installed?
    http://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchResult.aspx?​lang=eng&ProductFamily=Solid+State+Drives+and+Cach​...)
    Seems some useful tools are in there. I can't say much beyond that with the drive. Oh. Why does your fan always run at high speed? Can you describe that?  I mean, are we troubleshooting the right kind of issue? Is there anything else going on with your system? I saw about the reduced core speeds message. what are your system loads like? Anything causing high cpu utilization? Could be something other than the drive causing your low numbers and lockups.

Maybe you are looking for
